Hi Emily,
Yes, Osirix Lite should be sufficient, I think it works by picking
File-import and then File-export-export DICOMs (decompression is
sometimes helpful). It should be straightforward, just have a go at it.
Hope it helps.
Best wishes,
Barbara

Hi Barbara,
Thank you so much! I have downloaded Osirix Lite, since regular Osirix
costs a pretty penny!
So, once I have imported the dicoms, is it simply a matter of
exporting them onto my hardrive where I would like them to be?
Thanks so much!
Emily

Hi Emily,
I've never tried to use unpacksdcmdir but you may try the Osirix tool,
it allows you to read in a dicom folder and save a new folder with
subfolders according to the sequences that were run. At the same time
you can also anonymize your data.
Does this help?
Best wishes,
Barbara

Hello Freesurfer Experts,
Our research team has recently collected data from Martinos Center.
The entire scanning protocol (including anatomical, functional runs,
DWI) is in one directory.
Therefore I have been using unpacksdcmdir to tell me what runs go
with each scanning sequence. I have had no trouble unpacking the
functional and anatomical runs. I have had difficulties unpacking the
DWI data. I have been recently warned that unpackdcmdir does not
correctly unpack DWI data. Is there a work around or another tool I
could use? It seems that most tools are for unpacking per run
(dcmtonii), and would not work in my situation where all scans are in
one folder?
The runs that say "err" which typically indicated something is
missing in the scan appear to be unpacking. However, it does say on
the terminal that there is an error but attempting to unpack anyway.
Some of the runs that say "ok" in the scan log are not unpacking
properly. Additionally, we are finding that when we unpack on of
the DWI sequences we used, we get bvec and bval files. However, we do
not when we unpack a different DWI sequence we also ran we do not
get the corresponding bvec and bval files.
The command I am using, where I put related runs into related folders:
unpacksdcmdir -src dicomdir -targ targetdir -fsfast \
-run 2 bold nii f.nii \
-run 3 bold nii f.nii \
-run 4 bold nii f.nii \
-run 5 bold nii f.nii \
-run 6 bold nii f.nii \
-run 8 3danat mgz 001.mgz \
-run 9 3danat mgz 001.mgz
Any help would be great appreciated! Thanks!
